DID or other diss. disorders are so hard to diagnose & are often misdiagnosed. Some docs don't even believe DID exists! It's not up to us to say you are DID or not. That's something a therapist must determine after excluding all other possibilities. Ours do mimic drug use! All thought I was on drugs 'cos I acted 'weird'. I've never even tried drugs! Ignorance is out there as well. I go by what my T does, she doesn't care for labels as most are so outta this world, but rather try to focus on the problem. Whether it be from DID or just plain ol' depression.
Hope this didn't confuse you anymore. Glad you posted this. It helps to understand yourself when you talk it over w/ others.
Love,
